August 15, 1944 - Operation "Dragoon"

It was at 7:50 am on August 15, 1944 , during Operation Dragoon, the landings in Provence.
that the Allied troops of the first wave of assault set foot on the beaches of the French coast,
thus writing a heroic page in the history of France.

Eska pays tribute to him with the Amphibian 250 "H-Hour", a limited edition numbered to 50 copies.

This diver is the result of close collaboration between the Eska teams and Adrien S. , at the time commander of the amphibious helicopter carrier "Tonnerre". It was initially intended for the specialized units of the French Amphibious Forces.

The black dial of the Amphibian 250 “H-Hour” is complemented by a redesigned unidirectional bezel. Between the numerals, solid cube-shaped markers replace the traditional baton indices , enhancing legibility while adding a unique graphic touch.

The tip of the lollipop needle sports a subtle red tint, a detail that enhances the perceived quality.

The colors of the French flag illuminate the dial and the inscription ''H'' Hour recalls the origin and objective of the project by referring to the crucial moment of amphibious operations, the hour when the first assault wave lands on the beach.

To further emphasize the importance and memory of this H-hour, which was the moment when the landing troops left the relative shelter of the amphibious barges to assault the beach, a subtle red line is positioned at 7:50 , and the number 50 minutes is on a red background.

For this limited edition, the Amphibian 250 "H-Hour" is also available in a right-handed version, with the crown positioned at 9 o'clock instead of 3 o'clock. This option is available when ordering.

Historically designed for operational uses, this configuration improves wrist comfort and enhances the functional character of the watch, while remaining true to the tool and military spirit of the project.
